Little slow around Sooke right about and some silly slot limit in effect till July 15 so nothing too exciting, that doesn't bother me much as I hit a deadhead and the boat is in the shop getting a new leg in a week or so.

Thanks for sharing the fish Pics. I missed Bob on the 3rd--but we did not arrive until late in the day. we had 20k winds the until the morning of the 7th--so it was slow fishing. We did make it out to Swiftsure--and I had to convince Pops he could not join the big group of boats we saw--because they were in Canadian waters :-)
